The Fisherman Reaps the Benefits

"We'll take the most dangerous one."

Seeing the others looking puzzled, Ning Qi pointed at one of the passages and said it.

"We're taking this one?"

Ji Wanru was somewhat hesitant.

However, out of trust in Ning Qi, she did not say anything more.

"That's right. This one."

Ning Qi nodded, then continued, "The more dangerous a place is, the safer it is instead."

"I think the people here were thinking the same thing when they tried to mislead us."

"Then all right. We'll take this one."

Ji Wanru thought it over, but still chose to trust Ning Qi.

All the way here, he had never failed.

Every time, he had been able to turn danger into safety for them.

"Everyone, keep up."

"..."

Hearing this, the others all followed one after another.

Each of their eyes was filled with determination.

Just like that, they entered this Tunnel one after another, while Ning Qi was responsible for taking the lead.

"Master, if we keep going like this, we should arrive very soon, right?"

The Medicine Spirit analyzed from within his dantian.

"Mm. Let's go. There shouldn't be any problem here!"

Ning Qi nodded, then continued leading the way.

Inside this Tunnel, corpses and bones lay beneath the stone walls.

Judging from these corpses and bones, they had been dead for a very long time.

There were no fresh bodies. The others also glanced around from time to time, and their tightly clenched hearts gradually relaxed.

Since there were no newly arrived bodies here, that was enough to prove that this place was indeed safe.

In other words, the aura of death they had sensed outside really had been meant to trick them into taking the bait.

"This place really is safe!"

Ji Wanru also followed up, revealing a relaxed expression.
